Carlos Alba has had to give up his dream of winning Survivors. The Andalusian chef suffered a major injury to his hand last week, and this Monday, Jordi González informed him that he had to leave.

“We have been evaluating your participation in the contest and, after the pertinent studies and the tests carried out, after analyzing x-rays and being assessed by the traumatologist, a firm decision has been made, as drastic as it is difficult for us... you must abandon the contest ”, the presenter told the contestant.

In his goodbye, Carlos Alba wanted to thank the people who have been concerned about his health. “I am very sad, really. Between passing the spider bites and having to pass them. And that now they have had to put me in a plaster cast and I have pain, the truth is that it seems that he has taken a one-eyed look at me ”he valued then.

Carlos thus joins that list of contestants who have had to leave the program for medical reasons. And it is that in the contest of extreme coexistence almost anything can happen.

Carmen Gahona

Carmen Gahona, the survivor who did not even compete

In 2015 they participated in famous Survivors such as Nacho Vidal, Fortu or Isabel Rábago. One of the announced participants was Carmen Gahona, Chiquetete's partner, but at the first gala it was announced that she could not continue for medical reasons.

"You can rest easy, it's nothing serious. But here they are extreme situations, ”Jorge Javier Vázquez told her daughter Séfora, who was going to defend her on set, to reassure her. To kill the bug, they allowed Carmen to spend three hours with her classmates for several days, but with no option for the prize.

That same year the singer Rasel was also going to be one of the survivors, who, however, backed down once he was already in Honduras. The previous days of coexistence were very hard for him, since he had just become a father before going to the contest.

The treacherous helicopter jump

Bluper La Pantoja, Kiko Rivera y otros ‘Supervivientes’ que tuvieron que abandonar como Carlos Alba

The Survivors adventure officially begins when the contestants jump out of the helicopter. Something that is not easy at all, and that has caused many accidents throughout the history of reality.

For example, in the 2007 edition, Miss Ángela Bustillo had to leave due to an injury to the chest area that occurred on the first day, when jumping. “When I jumped out of the helicopter, before I fell I got up to see where I was and fell suddenly. At the time I felt pain, but I endured it because of my nerves. But as time went by, the discomfort was increasing, and on the third day I couldn't bear the pain” explained this model, who returned even before the first expelled (which was Chiqui Martín, on that occasion) in Spain.

In 2011, Tatiana Delgado injured her chest while jumping, and she was removed from the contest; finally, the model was able to return to the competition.

She also left for health reasons before Estela Giménez's first expulsion, in the 2008 edition. The gymnast lasted five days, and she said she was not "psychically" well. "It is very difficult for me to get ahead and, in addition, the physical does not accompany me" lamented the athlete. In both cases, we are talking about casualties that are considered voluntary, not imposed by the organization.

In 2011, Tamara Gorro wanted to clarify that she did not leave, but rather she retired "because my health comes before anything else." The tronista had had several fainting spells on the island before putting an end to her adventure.

Kiko Rivera had to abandon her edition due to gout problems, and her mother, Isabel Pantoja, was removed from the contest without clarifying her health problem. “Throughout your stay you have been subject to guidelines to guarantee your health. Unfortunately, the need for strict food control and the new treatment make your continuation in the contest incompatible. I'm sorry to say that you have to leave the contest to be treated in Spain," Jordi González told the tonadillera.

Antonio Tejada in 'Survivors'

Antonio Tejada, doubly injured

The list of contestants who have had to leave the contest due to health problems could continue with Alberto Santana, who suffered from arrhythmias, or Diego Matamoros, who suffered a back injury. Bibi de Las Mellis left Survivors to have a cyst removed, Eliad Cohen who ruptured a tendon in his biceps, and Tony Espina had a fibrillar rupture. For his part, Álvaro Muñoz Escassi suffered a ruptured internal ankle ligament after a fall and had to leave a few weeks before the final.

Antonio Tejada, for his part, left Survivors in 2014 due to sciatica pain. He had a new opportunity in 2016, and also had to leave for medical reasons, after a fall. As Jorge Javier Vázquez explained to him, his medical problem at Tejada had worsened and the doctors had decided that his time on the program should end. Roof then took the opportunity to charge against other contestants, ensuring that he should have reserved and spent more time lying in the sun.

The organization had to remove Violeta Magriñán from Survivors 2019 due to severe stomach pains, and they offered to return the following year. A proposal that she, apparently, could not accept in 2020 again due to health problems.
